Southern New Hampshire Medical Center Volunteer Services and Auxiliary

At Southern New Hampshire Health, volunteers are an integral part of our team. They dedicate over 48,000 hours of their time and skills annually to our patients, staff, and visitors alike and make a meaningful difference each day.

We welcome volunteers of all ages and backgrounds - students, retirees, former patients, and family and friends of staff and patients. We will work directly with you to ensure you are having a rewarding experience that accommodates your interests, skills, and schedule.

Volunteer Services is also the liaison for the Auxiliary, whose goal is to provide volunteer services, foster goodwill, offer financial support and increase community interest in Southern New Hampshire Health.

In 2020, the Auxiliary at Southern NH Medical Center, which provides volunteer services and offers financial support to the hospital, is celebrating 100 years of service. Over the years, the Auxiliary has donated over $1 million to the Medical Center for the special needs of their patients and their families. Proceeds are primarily generated by the Auxiliary’s Coffee Shop and Gift Shop, dues, and memorial donations. Through these efforts in 2019, the Auxiliary was able to raise close to $100,000, providing medical equipment to better serve the hospital’s patients, meals for patients receiving chemotherapy, employee and teen volunteer scholarships to further their education, and stuffed animals for children undergoing surgery.
